Well, that depends, are they also charging you a ludicrous sum of money each month? It would make me feel a lot more confident sharing my intimate details if they also required my credit card. The only thing that could set my mind more at ease would be extensive biometrics

Are there any ASMR puppy play birds?

They’ve been “cracking down on adblockers” for over a decade

Oh wow, yeah that sounds like some crazy mod abuse. Nothing beats volunteer contributors when it comes to drama haha

Oh interesting, may I ask how specialized those sources were? The first scenario that comes to mind is that perhaps they were known to be less than reputable, which could lead to a ban

In that situation it would be a kindness for you to take the specialized sources you’ve found and add them to articles, to save the next person a little trouble

Idk why we’ve reached the point where anyone saying they’re anything but an atheist has to specify that they aren’t a bigot

The main issue is that the cohort of people with megaphones broadcasting their spirituality is virtually entirely comprised of profiteers.

Like all such parasites they follow the pattern of establishing out groups for you to despise, simply because it drives engagement better. Same reason all major social media now attempts to shape you into a being of hatred and impulse. It keeps you stressed and activated so you jump at the opportunity when they offer to let you spend money to blow off some of the steam.

Bigotry as a phenomenon has many origins, but wherever it springs from it ultimately doubles as an inherently appealing strategy for those who wish wring dry their community.

At any rate, as we all sit here dying around the same poisoned watering hole, we see these profiteers dressing just like us while actively dumping the poison in. Ashamed, we feel compelled to proclaim, “I am not them! They only wear my clothes!”

Spirituality is an incredibly comfortable and practical “clothing” for many people. You’re absolutely correct in drawing attention to how bad it sucks that the people who embrace that comfort now feel pained to differentiate themselves from the abusers who pervert their fashion

Lol honestly it took me a second, especially with the HUGE post just two comments down detailing the whole situation and calling you a koolaid drinker. But yeah the entire situation is just so incredulous

Heartbreaking: worst person you know makes a good decision

Still seems to be working for me for now, I don’t see a timeline for taking it down do we know?

Oof, this is a little too intense. Could we get a version where a relatively thin red line is striking through the word “kill”?

And that he’s finishing off the year! What the heck. Those students must have an insane group chat lol

It’s more insidious than that. In general, meat forward diet influencers are entry points into the conservative pipeline. You start out seeking to improve your health and very quickly end up exposed to jordan peterson types who will ominously warn you of the “normalization of inadequacy” among the general public and suggest progressively more conservative content as a pathway to achieving your full potential.

So in essence, though he may not seem to directly benefit, by highlighting these types of diets he knows plenty of people will hop on youtube or whatever and get algorithm’d right back into the broader MAHA/MAGA sphere

Nah don’t apologize, your posts slap harder than his balls in my face

Came here to post Jperm, highly recommended. Got me from never picking up a cube before to a sub 2 minute solve with the beginner’s method. He has a website as well with graphic instructions that is very handy

Except it’s not their reflection, it’s a string of phrases presented to you based partly on the commonality of similar phrases appearing next to one another in the training data, and partly on mysterious black box modifications! Fun!

I go to hug my wife for comfort. She too is AI

Yes, like all written words, they were intentionally chosen. In this case, they were chosen because your rhetoric is identical to that of these toxic charlatans. If you told me you paid for an online seminar I would be unsurprised.

Why is this fantasy of intellectual superiority so appealing to you, would you guess?

Yes, literally everyone would prefer the opinion of a random person who’d never heard of the topic before today, over the regurgitated opinion of someone who instantly believes manosphere influencers when they say everyone is dumb except for you

Oh, plenty of people actually do use a belt grinder with an angle guide lol. It’s probably the best way to do it if you want quality + fast results tbh. I prefer a stone for the simplicity
